Condition

Colour: The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate, although it fails to fully convey the metallic quality of the silver background. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Very close inspection reveals some minute hairline scratches and superficial scuffs in isolated places. Extremely close inspection reveals a minute speck of loss to the extreme lower left-hand corner tip. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
